St. Philibert, Abbot; St. Privatus; St. Symphorian; St. Philip is a 1634 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows four small oval scenes, each framed and numbered. The top left depicts a robed man holding a staff and book by the sea. The top right shows a group of people carrying a cross, with one person on the ground. The bottom left has a man with a spear and another holding a book, with a child nearby. The bottom right features a lone robed figure standing near a building. Each scene is drawn with fine lines and shading, giving a sense of movement and emotion. The artist used a technique that creates detailed textures with ink on paper. Next, look up etching to see how artists like Callot made these precise lines.
Jacques Callot was a baroque printmaker and draftsman from the Duchy of Lorraine.
